From the designer of watches under the brands: Audemars Piguet, Perrelet, Ebel, and many others comes a beautiful timepiece made for explorers. Limited to only a few pieces coming with a green, blue or brown dial the watch is selling out fast! The Kickstarter campaign went live on June 7 2017 and as of this writing has received $218,000 of the $58,000 goal. Looking the timepiece over, I can see why.
The case design is reminiscent of a few Hublot watch designs with flat stainless steel surfaces and edges. The case houses an ETA 2824-2, a very robust and proven movement in both entry level and high end watches such as the Tudor Black Bay models of the past. The dial is 41mm across and the watch is water resistance of 200m. This is a watch I would love to add to my collection. Sadly, it is almost sold out and all I can do as of now is hope they bring it into production; not just the limited quantities as sold through the kickstarter campaign.
And to tie the knot, the watch comes beautifully packaged.
At CHF1570 on kickstarter (from the CHF2540 retail price) this is a steal. The quality and specifications are those of a much higher end and more expensive watch. I would really like to see this company start production full time. I'll be the first in line! But right now, I have other projects that I have to financially fund before I take the plunge for a Laventure piece.
